After taking the assignment, Silver adds a new recruit to the Wild Pack, Karl Striklan a.k.a the Crippler. As the Wild Pack keep an eye on the reverend the killing shots are taken. Luckily the Sandman traded places with the Reverend. In the end the battle with Gatling is lost the would be assassin escapes.
